Just like others in alliances that were exposed of cheating, Ev0ke will forever be labeled as cheaters regardless if majority of your membership did not know about it. It might not be fair, but that's how it is in EVE. Apology rejected.

In order to clarify the involvement of Ev0ke in the recently uncovered pos mechanics exploit we herby release our official statement to set the record straight.

As you might have already heard from various sources we had several accounts banned for reasons of EULA violation.
Some of the individuals in question have confessed to us that they in fact did engage in such and that those bans are a direct result from it.
We were just as surprised to learn about the utterly flawed game mechanics as you propably have been and downright enraged that members of our own alliance took advantage of it.

It is important for us to point out that the vast majority of our membership was unaware of the existance of such an exploit, let alone that someone from our midst would utilize it.
Further on it is important to note that not all members who had their accounts banned were directly involved, at least they didn't consciously support it.

CCP's investigation of that matter is still ongoing and we believe that time will tell who can be considered innocent and who not.

Still we want to apologize to the whole EvE Online Community for our failure at discovering the actions of that group of former members ourselves.
They have fooled and disappointed us even more than they did you.

regards

To play devil's advocates here, how could you Alliance directors etc not notice or be suspicious of the amount of isk that was coming in from the exploit? Sure someone must have noticed something didn't add up. Especially if it had been going on since 2005.

Pos mining isnt a taxable thing. If these players were just "nice guys" and would throw a few spare ships at their corpmates every now and again, no one would be the wiser. I know plenty of players who have way too much fuggin isk, and actually get it legitimately. Everyone knows people like that I'm sure.
